How wonderful to see so many people I'd known all my life. Frank Larlee, Clyde Boutilier, Forrest Bunker, Wayne Duplisea, Mr. Strout and Mr. Robertson, among others.

This is really a wonderful video to watch. I grew up in Houlton when my folks moved there from Woodstock, N.B. 1950. I was 2 and eventually lived out on Smyrna St. until I moved to New Limerick in 1965. We grew up around the Houlton Station. As kids we loved it after the R.R. built a grated side walk going over the Meduxnekeag River. As young boys we would sit under the Riverside St. end of the bridge waiting for this one beautiful woman who worked as a secretary for the RR and we would peek. She had to hear us giggling.

What a blessing to see this! History, and all of the hard work, time away from families, and dedication. My grandfather is at 40 min.and 16sec. Franklin "bob" Holmes. Smoking the pipe.

It will live on, but only in memory. What a shame it's all gone now

I suspect this was made in the 70's or 80's from the clothes. BAR was a helluva railroad. Sad most of it is gone.

I wasn't sure if that was Bill Adams at the control's at 44:58. It sure looks like him.
